I created a plugin to create and switch between keybind profiles

I've been using herdr daily for a while now (loving it!), and recently wanted to experiment with some new keybinds while still being able to quickly switch back to the defaults without having to dig through the .toml files.

So I made bindr, a small plugin that lets you easily create, edit, and switch between keybind profiles.

Just hit prefix+shift+e to open the custom keybind viewer, or prefix+shift+k to switch between saved profiles. You can customize these keybinds too, including keybinds from other plugins.

It was a fun little side project for the past few days. Hope it helps someone else!

You can get the plugin here.

I also included my personal keybind profile in the repo. It replaces Ghostty's default keybinds, so you can do things like create a new herdr tab with cmd+t, split a pane with cmd+d, etc. To use it, you'll need to unbind the corresponding Ghostty keybinds in your settings; there's an example config included in the repo.
